Regional Swap Question

[Carolina Girl]

So how do you tote your swap cards to a Regional? I have 100 ready to go for Atlanta in a plastic shoe box but it seems to me this is going to be rather cumbersome as I will also have a shoulder bag loaded with the supplies, right?...could some of the swap-pros out there give us new swappers some advise?

I went to my first regionals this year and I took my swaps in a shoebox, and since you can take a backpack sized bag, I took one with wheels. Then I unzipped and let them drop in their swaps and handed them one out of the box. When you are finished, toss the box in a trash can, and wheel your bag around. I got one with side pockets for my wallet, water bottle, meds, CAMERA! Whatever you need for the day. HTH.

At the last regional I went to, we swapped a little while we were in line for our goodies, but as soon as the doors opened to the room, we got a table, put our stuff down, and walked around and swapped. Some stayed at their tables and put their swaps out, and others walked around.

I have a large zip lock bag w/my swaps, and another one to put the ones I get. When my bag is empty, I fill it back up from the swaps I left at the table.
